About Stick Man

Touching, funny and utterly original, Freckle Productions’ delightful adaptation of Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler’s Stick Man is back in town!

What starts off as a morning jog becomes quite the misadventure for Stick Man: a dog wants to play fetch with him, a swan builds a nest with him, and he even ends up on a fire! How will Stick Man ever get back to the family tree?

This award-winning production, from the team behind Zog and Zog and the Flying Doctors, features a trio of top actors and is packed full of puppetry, songs, live music and funky moves.

All ages welcome!

For all performances, there’s a relaxed attitude towards audience noise and audiences can come and go as they wish.

For the Relaxed Performance (4.30pm Sunday 14 December) as well as this, house lights remain partially on; sound levels are slightly lowered; a breakout space is available outside the auditorium if needed; and the cast enter stage ‘out of character’ at the start of the show to introduce themselves and run through any instruments/items that may make unusual sounds.
